Meet Corliss Archer, the entertaining teenager who faces the pains of adolescence with a breathless innocence and charm. Captivating Corliss is played by radio veteran Janet Waldo, who is perhaps best remembered today for her contributions to animated cartoons, including her role as Judy Jetson on The Jetsons.

Corliss' main squeeze is Dexter Franklin (Sam Edwards) - a well-meaning young man, most memorable for three things: his catchphrase "Holy Cow!", his trademark bellow of "Cooooorrrr-laiss!", and his knack for creating absolute chaos everywhere he went.

In on all the action is Corliss' best gal pal Mildred Ames, Mildred's bratty little brother Raymond, and Betty Cameron, Corliss' "rival in all things vital."
